Carpet Stretching 101
What Causes Carpets to Wrinkle?
Unfortunately, the problem often stems from poor-quality installation. All carpets must be power stretched at installation. The carpet is meant to be installed tight like a drum, and this is only possible with the use of a power stretcher.
Some retailers advertise “knee kickers” as an appropriate tool for carpet installation. Every time I see one of those ads, I cringe. Knee kickers are meant only for small areas and will not effectively stretch a carpet in a room. More damage has been done to carpets because people assume it is OK for their carpets to be installed with a “knee kicker.
According to the Carpet & Rug Institute Carpet Installation Guidelines, “Using a Mechanical Stretching Device (i.e. Power Stretcher) is Mandatory. Devices used as a substitute for such devices may cause injury, damage carpet or substrate, or result in inadequate stretch. Such devices are not acceptable.”
Leave Water Restoration to the Experts
Do I Need a Water Restoration Company?
Should your carpets and rugs get damaged by flood water, you’ll have two options – replace them or repair them. However, if the damage is beyond your DIY skills, it’s best you leave the water restoration and carpet repair work to the experts. Of course, if you live in Boulder, Longmont, or Broomfield, Colorado … lucky you! That’s because you could always call the experts at Colorado Carpet Masters to do the job.
Whether you live in a flood-prone area or not, the unpredictable and erratic nature of today’s global weather patterns can cause flash floods as a result of heavy rain or snowstorms, when least expected. While damage to your expensive carpets and rugs can range from the moderate to the severe in such an event, you could stand to lose a small fortune to replace them with a new set.
